The Snyder Industries 2500 Gallon XLPE Vertical Liquid Storage Tank is a cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) vertical storage tank built for heavy-duty storage. It holds 2,500 gallons, stands 107 inches tall, and measures 90 inches across at its widest point on a 90 x 90 inch footprint, molded in white. For a round vertical tank those equal width and length figures are the bounding box, so the tank is 90 inches in diameter, not a square base. The XLPE resin carries a 1.9 specific gravity rating, which is what lets this tank hold dense liquids well beyond plain water without compromising the wall. If you are sizing a vertical storage tank by both volume and weight, this is a serious capacity tank that needs real planning before it lands on your pad.
Will it work for your liquid and your site?
Filled with water, this tank carries 20,850 pounds of contents. At its full 1.9 specific gravity rating, the maximum rated contents weight climbs to 39,615 pounds, an increase of 18,765 pounds, roughly 90 percent over the water figure. That gap is the strongest reason to choose an XLPE 1.9 SG tank over a standard 1.5 SG water tank when you are storing something denser than water, and it is exactly why the pad, ring wall, or slab under a vertical tank has to be engineered for the actual weight of the liquid you intend to store, not just the water number. The 90-inch diameter and 107-inch height also determine your access clearance and whether the filled tank fits under existing roofing or structure. Run your numbers through the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit to a spot.
What to confirm before you order
The most common mistake on a tank like this is sizing the foundation and the outlets off the wrong numbers. Confirm your slab against the higher 39,615-pound figure if you are storing anything heavier than water. Review the technical drawing on this page for the molded dimensions and outlet locations, and confirm the molded outlet and bulkhead positions, plus your required fitting and gasket materials, against that drawing before ordering rather than assuming a configuration. This is a water-class tank: if you intend to store anything other than water, call us first at 866-418-1777 so we can confirm cross-linked polyethylene is the right wall for your liquid.
